A Deterministic Strongly Polynomial Algorithm for Matrix Scaling and Approximate Permanents
We present a deterministic strongly polynomial algorithm that computes the permanent of a nonnegative n × n matrix to within a multiplicative factor of en. To this end we develop...

Approximation Algorithms for 3D Orthogonal Knapsack
We study non-overlapping axis-parallel packings of 3D boxes with profits into a dedicated bigger box where rotation is either forbidden or permitted; we wish to maximize the total...

Approximating Additive Distortion of Embeddings into Line Metrics
We consider the problem of fitting metric data on n points to a path (line) metric. Our objective is to minimize the total additive distortion of this mapping. The total additive ...

Approximation algorithms for clustering uncertain data
There is an increasing quantity of data with uncertainty arising from applications such as sensor network measurements, record linkage, and as output of mining algorithms. This un...

A local search approximation algorithm for k-means clustering
In k-means clustering we are given a set of n data points in d-dimensional space d and an integer k, and the problem is to determine a set of k points in d , called centers, to mi...
